Anybody tried (with success?) to get information from the archives? If so, how?

I have a numbered hero of labour which I'd love to get researched

They are usually very slow in answering, but you could try to give them a call. On the page with the contact details there is a public relations department "pentru eliberarea de acte privind drepturi ale cetăţenilor rom?ni şi străini" (for releasing documents regarding the rights of Romanian and foreign citizens). Their phone numbers are: direct +40-21-313-92-95 or extensions 10379 and 10337 through the switchboard +40-21-303-70-80. Good luck!
